I C KooK "This is kooky, totally kooky I tell ya!"

I had a brain fart when I saw this. Maybe you could change your ID to "I M Kook"? Just a thought. No charge for the idea. GGGGG

Least he could do is come up with something original.

Didn't know how to use a gps. I think I could have found out myself if I had to.

I've noticed that the Darwin awards seems to be age descriminate. Every once in a great while you'll hear of a kid doing something really stupid and paying the ultimate price, but the stories never seem to end up on the Darwin awards. I guess all the parents out there would create way too much fuss and our poor delicate society couldn't handle the thought of kids not being immortal, even though they're fine reading gory stories of adult stupidity.

As a priest, hadn't he already removed himself from the gene pool?

That is quite a morbid list of awards on their site.
